If you didn't already know, Swedish furniture retailer Ikea is celebrating its 75th birthday by giving customers a treat – a limited edition collection called Re-imagined Classics.
On the 28th July 1943, Ingvar Kamprad founded Ikea in the outskirts of Älmhult. What started as a small post order business, operated by a teenager on a bike, has now become a 75-year brand.
The Re-imagined Classics collection embraces some of Ikea's most iconic products which have stood the test of time in terms of quality and design style. Products in the range take inspiration from the decades of the 50s to 00s, so there's a return of some fan favourites which have been given a modern twist, and old classics which have been transformed into new classics.
'The new Re-imagined Classics collection is to be kept and looked after in the home forever,' says Clotilde Passalacqua, interior design leader from Ikea UK and Ireland. 'The products within the collection were favourites when they were first introduced and Ikea is showing that these designs are still current now, decades after they were first created.'
Released in three stages - August, October and December – explore the full collection below:
